The | variety of habiliments for the adorn- | ment of invisible dolls showed care- ful stitching and patient work, with an amount of skill which will be most useful to them through their future lives.

Linton and E. J. Sulltvan. The form- er was for 40 years, and the latter for 30 years, employees of Waldron's store, and are consequently well lified to carry on the ideals set up and the success attained by that venerable institution. They will. specialize, as did their predecessors, in linens and high grade dress goods, Both men are we!l known and highly esteemed in the city, and their long expérience in merchandising guarantees for them a successful future.

Soft coal will be cheaper. Dealers ex- plain the increase by pointing to the added transportation cost of $1 a ton which the consumers escaped last year through all shipments being re- ceived before the U. S. freight rates went into effect. New Quebec Liquor Law Montreal, May 2.--Montreal open- ed under the new liquor Tegime to- day and twenty liquor fommission retail depots started."

Pattison Jr. & | Company, Toronto, say that consid- | erable activity developed though in most cases price changes were only | fractional. Many bids were in the market for such bonds as are active- ly traded in and for which there is at all times a ready market--this is a feature which has been missing from the street for many weeks. Imperial Oil was again active, closing 105 to 110. A large amount of trading occurred between figures. The market price fluctuatad at times with great rapidity but as is usual with this stock movements upward resulted from only a mod- erate demand while all offerings on the downward scale were quickly. ab- sorbed and with only fractional de- clines. Riordan New _was again under steady pressure, and the Common reaching 4 1-2 to 5 1:2 and the Pre- ferred 37 to 39 on the close--these figures as compared with 12 tol4and 67 1-2 to 68 respectively one week ago. It would appearthat the liquida-, ation in these stocks has about run' its course and that they ara due for at least some rally. Western Grocers Preferred improved slightly to 61 1-2 bid on very little trading with no stock offered. Cockshutt Plow eased to 54 to §9 with little in- terest evident either way. Goodyear Tire Preferred improved to 48 to 54 om considerable buying, -at tha close little stock was offered. Bids were repeatedly asked for on Gunn's Preferred but none was to be had at ths present time due to the postpove- ment of the dividend. Toronto Power b's were traded in to a limited ex- tent at 88 1-2 to 91. Whalen De- bentures were in demand early in the week closing 51 bid with none offered. : ~ President Harding is to be asked to mediate between ship owners and marine workers threatening to strike because of impending Wage reduc- tions.
